C64 BoulderDash Cheat

Post by HerzAusGold »

Hi,
I found this source on my attic.
Writing this about 20 years ago.
And published to the C64-Mag.
I remember I got 50 DM (25 Euro) for this...
...good old days...

10 REM BOULDER DASH
20 :
30 POKE53280,0:POKE53281,0:PRINT"hp"
40 :REM INIT
50 PRINT"sqqq"
60 PRINT,"----------------"
70 PRINT,"- BOULDER DASH -"
80 PRINT,"----------------"
90 PRINT"qqq"
100 PRINT"---------------------"
110 PRINT"- SPIELER 0..9 ? -"
120 PRINT"---------------------"
130 PRINT"qq"
135 PRINT"---------------------"
140 PRINT"- ZEIT 0..1 ? -"
145 PRINT"---------------------"
150 PRINT"uuuuuuuuue"
155 PRINT,"jjjjjjj";:POKE204,0
160 GETA$:IFA$<"0"ORA$>"9"THEN160
165 PRINTA$;" "
170 PRINT"qqqq"
175 PRINT,"jjjjjjj";:POKE204,0
180 GETB$:IFB$<"0"ORB$>"1"THEN180
185 PRINTB$;" ":POKE204,1
190 :
200 IFA$="0"THENPOKE34670,169:GOTO220
210 POKE34646,VAL(A$):POKE34752,VAL(A$)
220 IFB$="0"THENPOKE28896,234:POKE28897,234:POKE28898,234
230 SYS35507:END

This patched BoulderDash I, II, III to have unlimited lives
or 1..9 lives and/or to switch off the time limit.

If I found the source (disassembled with comments and some
hints if I can remember right) on the attic too (may be)
I scan it in and upload it may be.....

Btw: I played BD-dreams and it seems some levels are from
BD Construction Kit IV (or an other)- but may be I am wrong here.

Happy New Year..
And the answer is ... 42 !

I turned around my attic, but I dont found the disassembled source print out. - Snief,Snief -
May be it's used by my children to paint...or Murphy strikes back-You know if you search something you never find it...

Only find c64 disk's with bd1..5 and bd7,bd8,bd10.
But I selled my c64 and the 1541 drive long time ago.
(I think the games can be found on the web too, but to get it is another thing...)
And the answer is ... 42 !

I also sold my good old C64 these days... :-/

But some years ago, I bought one back from eBay (together with a 1541, original model :-) ), so I can sometimes play a game of original BD. :-)

I was uploading this cheat to my new Boulder Dash page (which is coming soon) of my site and then I read this. No, you are wrong here! All the BD Dream levels are my own creation, none come from somewhere else! But cool to hear that they are really that classic! 8) For I've never played the old Boulder Dash on the C64 myself... :D
